    You do not need to get this, an Irish licence is fine.
    You do not need to swap your licence if you are on a temporary visa (WHV/457)

    Although if you are a PR you must swap your licence for an Australian one within 3 months.
    They can and will check your passport stamp.

    An Irish Provisional is now no longer considered driving experience. You must have held your Full for 3 years or you will be issued P Plates.

    My wife has just been through all this. They are very strict to the point of annoyance.

    So just wondering, did she go over with her provisional and apply for the P Plates? Did she have to take any tests etc? Was there much difficulty in applying for it?
    I'm heading over on a Irish Learner to Queensland and it seems that you can exchange it for a QLD learner permit.

    This was NSW, but she had 10 months on her Full Irish. This translates to Red Ps as you need a year of "driving experience". Irish Provisionals dont count towards it.

    She didnt need any tests, but she will need to do one to go to Green Ps and then to Full.
